Wish You Were Here
Pink Floyd
Better than I expected, as I hate the title track and damn near every radio single I've ever heard from Pink Floyd. The instrumental work on the opener and closer was my favorite, but I doubt I'll ever come back to it in full again.

Marcus Garvey
Burning Spear
I'm really not a reggae fan, and this won't convert me. I found it to be 33 minutes of the same song with no dynamic changes or anything interesting to keep me interested. Background music at best, for me. But fans of reggae probably love this.

Goodbye Yellow Brick Road
Elton John
This album was so fun front to back. Aside from the obvious singles, I went into this one blind. I don't know what I expected, but it had way more classic rock guitar licks to accompany Elton's fun piano playing than I anticipated. I can't say there's a skip on here. 5 stars all day.
Don't be intimidated by the 1:16 runtime... I've listened to 30-minute albums on here that felt like they dragged on for hours.
This really is the perfect Elton John album.

The Marshall Mathers LP
Eminem
This was cool and edgy when I was 13, but as an adult in 2021: nope. This doesn't hold up at all. Couldn't make it more than a few minutes without cringing. Deleting from library, sorry Eminem.
